It's tough to find a lawyer who will return your calls, much less take on your medical malpractice case. Steve Davis actually answered his phone and listened as I outlined my case. He was skeptical it had merit but offered me an hour-long $750- consult (he ended up giving me two hours) so I could educate myself about my options and likelihood of success. Steve is straight-talking and highly experienced; I felt I could trust his take. With no further expenditure by me, he sent my doctor a Notice of Intent to Sue and additional necessary notices. When my doc's lawyer finally responded, Steve knew the guy and could cut to the chase. I was able to get a full settlement (the max allowed by California law) without setting foot in a courtroom. Ask for a consult with Steve to educate yourself about your options. And believe what he says. Steve is conscientious, smart, tough and fearless. And he didn't need my money, so I knew I wasn't getting a sales pitch. Great experience!

I highly recommend Steven Davis Law Group. I recently had the unfortunate experience of being hit by a car and I am incredibly grateful to Tracy and Steve for their exceptional legal support in dealing with the insurance company. From our first consultation, they demonstrated a deep understanding of personal injury law and knowledge dealing with insurance companies. Tracy was always available to answer my questions and kept me informed throughout the process. They handled all the paperwork and negotiations with the insurance company, ensuring that I received the compensation I deserved.
Thank you, Tracy and Steve

I needed legal advice on a consumer right of rescission situation and searched for the answer online. I posed the question on Avvo.com, and Michael Fate was the only lawyer to call me. Though my case, in his opinion, would not succeed, he spent 15 minutes on the phone with me to explain and talk through all scenarios. Excellent service!

I was in need of some legal advice on a couple of occasions, and reached out to Mr. Leopoldis via Avvo. My legal issues were related to the growth of my business, and my liabilities as an employer. He provided both solid advice, as well as actionable suggestions to help with both issues. His fees are very reasonable in comparison to other attorneys. Mr. Leopoldis has a very calm demeanor, and the use of "Mr" in my review, may be implying a stuffiness that does not exist. Brandon is very easy to speak to regarding legal matters, and very easily accessable by e-mail. He does not hide behind secretaries and ensures his clients needs are met. Mr. Leopoldis/Brandon may not be the best match for your legal needs, like a Dermatologist might not be the best match for your health needs, but he should be your FIRST call, and your Go-To Attorney, as he will tell you up front whether your issue matches his specialty -- and with his many legal connections, he will point you in the right direction and make sure you are in good hands, if the hands you need to be in are not his own.

I had an amazing experience working with Roger Senders. He was the 3rd attorney I went to, trying to get help understanding the differences of my dad's original and revised Trust & Will.
He spoke to me with great patience, clarity, and knowledge. He was generous with his time and compassionate for what all this meant to me and my sister. I can't recommend him enough and deeply trust his knowledge, professionalism, intelligence, fairness, care, honesty, patience, and willingness to offer more clarity if we needed.
Roger also consulted with a colleague regarding a specific CA law to ensure accuracy, which I really appreciated especially bc my dad had dementia when his Trust was changed with his wife. So I appreciate that he was very thorough and humble too.
His heart is pure & kind and his mind is very sharp. He is patient and his knowledge is extensive. Beyond valuable. Thank you deeply Roger for restoring peace in my heart, mind & family.

Willow was recommend by a writer friend, and we found her to be amazing. She made the process of creating our trust unbelievably smooth, and we learned so much working with her. She dedicated herself to making sure we did things right, asked vital questions, and was incredibly meticulous from start to finish. She even found a way to make it fun and has great energy overall. Our "estate" wasn't particularly complicated, but in California it is so important to put things in a trust, and Willow gave us the A-list treatment tailored to our needs. Highly highly highly recommend.

What a Business Lawyer Can Do for You
A business lawyer provides critical legal guidance and support to entrepreneurs, startups, and established businesses. Whether you are forming a new company, drafting contracts, or navigating complex regulations, a business attorney ensures you are legally protected and operating within the law. They can also help prevent legal disputes or represent you in negotiations, transactions, or lawsuits that arise during the course of business operations.
Business lawyers have expertise in areas such as business formation, contract law, intellectual property, employment law, mergers and acquisitions, and corporate governance. They ensure that your business is compliant with relevant laws and help mitigate risks that could threaten your company's success.
When Should I Hire a Business Lawyer?
Hiring a business lawyer is essential at various stages of business development, including:
- Forming a business: When deciding on the best structure for your company (LLC, corporation, partnership, etc.), a lawyer can guide you through the registration and compliance process.
- Drafting contracts: If you need contracts for employees, partners, suppliers, or clients, a lawyer ensures these documents are legally sound and in your best interest.
- Mergers, acquisitions, or dissolutions: If you are buying, selling, or dissolving a company, legal counsel is critical to avoid costly mistakes.
- Compliance and regulatory issues: A lawyer can help navigate complex regulations, particularly in industries like healthcare, finance, or tech.
- Resolving disputes: Whether it's contract disagreements, intellectual property infringement, or employment issues, a business lawyer helps mediate, negotiate, or litigate on your behalf.
What Does a Business Lawyer Do?
Business lawyers provide a wide range of services that cater to different legal needs of a business. They can:
- Help you choose the best legal structure for your business.
- Draft, review, and negotiate contracts with employees, suppliers, customers, or business partners.
- Ensure regulatory compliance with local, state, and federal laws.
- Advise on tax strategies to minimize your business's tax burden.
- Assist with intellectual property protection, such as trademarks, patents, and copyrights.
- Handle mergers, acquisitions, and business sales, ensuring all legal paperwork is in order.
- Resolve disputes through negotiation, arbitration, or litigation.
How Are Business Lawyers Paid?
Business lawyers typically charge either by the hour or on a flat-fee basis, depending on the complexity of the work. Common payment structures include:
- Hourly rates: The lawyer charges based on the time spent working on your case. Rates vary depending on the lawyer's experience and location.
- Flat fees: For certain tasks, such as incorporating a business or drafting a standard contract, a lawyer may offer a flat fee.
- Retainer: Some businesses may hire a lawyer on retainer, paying a fixed amount each month to have ongoing access to legal services.
The payment structure is often discussed during an initial consultation so you can choose the one that best suits your business needs and budget.
How Much Does a Business Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a business lawyer depends on factors such as:
- The complexity of the legal issue: More complex matters, like mergers or intellectual property disputes, typically cost more than routine tasks like contract drafting.
- The lawyer's experience and location: More experienced lawyers or those in larger cities often charge higher fees.
- The nature of the billing arrangement: Hourly rates can range from $150 to $1,000 or more, depending on the lawyer's expertise. Flat fees are usually available for simpler matters like forming an LLC or drafting a standard contract.
It's essential to discuss fee structures upfront to avoid surprises.
Top Questions to Ask a Business Lawyer
Before hiring a business lawyer, ask the following questions during your consultation:
-
What is your experience with businesses like mine?
Find out if the lawyer has handled legal issues for companies in your industry. -
What services do you offer?
Ensure the lawyer can meet all your business's legal needs, from contract drafting to dispute resolution. -
What are your fees, and how do you bill?
Get clarity on how you'll be charged - whether by the hour, flat fee, or retainer. -
How do you handle conflicts of interest?
Ask how the lawyer ensures there is no conflict in representing your business. -
Can you provide references from other business clients?
Speaking with past clients will give you an idea of the lawyer's expertise and professionalism. -
Do you have experience in my specific industry?
Industry-specific knowledge can be crucial, especially in highly regulated fields like healthcare or finance.
How to Check the Credibility of a Business Lawyer
To ensure you're hiring a reputable business lawyer:
- Check state bar association records: Verify that the lawyer is in good standing and has no disciplinary actions against them.
- Look for client reviews or testimonials: Online reviews, testimonials, or word of mouth from other business owners can provide insight into the lawyer's reliability and effectiveness.
- Ask for references: A credible lawyer should have satisfied clients who can vouch for their services.
- Check professional memberships: Membership in respected legal organizations (such as the American Bar Association or a local business lawyer association) can signal credibility.
- Review their website and professional profile: A well-established lawyer typically has a professional website showcasing their areas of expertise, credentials, and case success.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To make the most out of your first consultation with a business lawyer, prepare the following:
- A description of your business and its structure: This will help the lawyer understand your legal needs.
- Any current contracts or agreements: If you're seeking contract advice, bring copies of existing contracts.
- A list of legal issues or concerns: Be ready to discuss any potential legal challenges, such as regulatory compliance, disputes, or transactions.
- Financial documents: If applicable, bring financial records related to the legal matter you're seeking help with.
- Questions about fees and billing: Ensure you understand the lawyer’s payment structure and fees upfront.
By preparing these materials, you can ensure that your first meeting with a business lawyer is productive and informative.
